Babar stood by Kohli’s side in difficult times.
Former Indian captain Virat Kohli’s only job was to beat the opposing bowlers once he came into bat. It is Kohli who has not scored a century in any format for the past three years. Due to such a performance, many people think that Kohli’s career is over. Pakistan captain Babar Azam, the best batsman of the time, stood by Kohli in such a difficult time.
Although against his own will, this time the Indian board has given leave to Kohli. At such a time, Pakistan’s captain and current best batsman Babar Azam stood by Virat Kohli.
The Pakistan captain recently posted a picture with him on Twitter, captioning it, this ordeal will pass, stay strong and after that he gave Kohli’s name on the hashtag.
The Pakistan captain believes that all cricketers go through bad times. Kohli is going through that period. But one time this bad time will pass; good time will take its place. That is what he meant in the tweet.
Kohli failed to match himself against England on Thursday. He scored 16 runs off 25 balls in the second ODI against England. His team lost by 100 runs. With this victory, the host England has tied the three-match series at 1-1.
Kohli scored his last century at Eden Gardens in 2019. That too was against Bangladesh. Kohli is not able to score a century after this. He is struggling even to get a half century. Not only is he not getting help from the board at the time of his poor performance, Kohli has also been left out of the T20 squad against the Caribbean.
